How astronomers used gravitational lensing, a space-time trick predicted by Einstein, to detect a black hole measuring 30 billion times the mass of the sun.

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity is based on the idea that massive objects cause a distortion in space-time, which is felt as gravity ...

The geometry of spacetime forms the very foundation of modern gravitational theory, where the elegant interplay between curvature and matter is described by Einstein’s field equations. In this ...

This dimple in space-time is the result of what we call a gravity well, and it was first described over 100 years ago by Albert Einstein's field equations in his theory of general relativity.To ...

The question remains, however, as to whether Einstein's predictions remain correct on a universal scale. Albert Einstein. The theoretical physicist published his theory of general relativity in 1919.

Discover how Einstein’s theory of special relativity reshaped physics by linking space, time, mass, and energy in a universe governed by the speed of light.
